Mud flaps

I bought some nice Empi mud flaps at Volksfling for my 68 beetle. But the straight L shaped brackets that came with it don’t really seem to fit to where I thought they should go (the bumper irons) as the bend in the body arch prevents this.
Should they go somewhere else or do I just need to adjust the brackets? :think
Mind the brackets are quite thick…

I’ve had to “adjust” any mudflap brackets that I have had to fit.

They never seem to be made to fit my cars… mad.gif

Good luck,

Bob
